Erikshjälpen in joint opinion piece for girls' education

Nearly 118 million girls around the world are not in school. In a joint opinion piece, Erikshjälpen and seven other organisations draw attention to girls' right to education.

Education for girls is a safeguard against both child marriage and child labor. Efforts to strengthen girls' rights are important and beneficial for girls and their families, for entire communities and for global development.

Together with seven others organisations Erikshjälpen participates in a collaborative project that is financed by the Postcode Lottery and coordinated by the Postcode Foundation. The collaborative project involves several different projects being implemented in different parts of the world to give girls access to education.
